Senior Houthi Ansar Allah Movement Officials: Iran Won The War, Proved U.S., Israel Understand Only Language Of Force; Our Attacks On Israel To Continue
On June 24, 2025, following the announcement of a ceasefire in the war between Iran and Israel, senior Houthi Ansar Allah movement officials declared Iran's victory and asserted that it had forced Israel to stop fighting. The same officials added that the ceasefire proved that Israel and the U.S. "understand only the language of force." At the same time, they threatened that the Houthi armed forces' attacks on Israel would continue as well as what they described as their "ban on aerial and marine traffic" at Israel's international airport and Haifa Port, until the end of "the aggression" against Gaza and the lifting of the siege on it. The following is a review of the responses from senior Houthi officials to the June 24, 2025 ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran: On June 24, 2025, as the ceasefire between Iran and Israel was going into effect, Muhammad Al-Bukhaiti, a member of the Houthi Political Bureau, posted a message on his Telegram channel that claimed that the decision to stop the war was in the hands of Iran because it knows best what is in its best interests. He wrote that if the war really did stop it would be Iran that had won because the U.S. and Israel had not achieved their strategic goals.[1] When the ceasefire went into effect, Al-Bukhaiti posted another message in which he asserted that the agreement by the U.S. and Israel to stop fighting "proved that military force is the only language they understand." He further declared that the Houthis would continue their military operations against Israel "until the end of the aggression against Gaza and the lifting of the siege on it."[2] Also on June 24, Deputy Head of the Houthi Media Authority, Nasr Al-Din 'Amer, shared a photograph of Khamenei on his Telegram channel and expressed gratitude to him, saying that "Iran forcibly imposed a ceasefire on the enemy Zionist entity. This is truly the imposing of peace by means of the power of Islam."[3] 'Amer also shared a poster from the Iranian Arabic-language news agency, Iran in Arabic, which shows destruction caused in Israel by an Iranian missile, beneath text in Arabic and Hebrew which reads: "The final shot is ours." In the text that accompanies the poster 'Amer commented: "Iran already said at the start: 'You began with aggression, but we are the ones who will end it with the last shot.' And in fact, the end came. Congratulations to the Islamic nation for the victory of Iran."[4] On the same day, Houthi Political Bureau and Shura Council member Hezam Al-Asad posted a message on his X account in which he wrote that the Houthi "ban [on aerial and naval traffic] at Ben Gurion International Airport and on Haifa Port was still in effect and would not be lifted until the end of the aggression and the lifting of the siege on our people in Gaza."[5]
